Stolen Equipment

[craigthewelder]

I'm not sure if this is in the right section and i know its a long shot but.....

During the Easter weekend our workshop was targeted by thieves. Though they didn't get away with everything what they did take cost a small firm like ours a lot of money.

If other fabrication and welding companies, especially in and around South Yorkshire could be wary of anyone approaching them with very expensive Lorch welding sets on the cheap, there's a chance they could be ours. They also took a load of grinders and mag drills but its the welding sets that are more important to us.

Thanks.

Can you list the model numbers so we can keep our eyes peeled.

and serial numbers, your dealer/supplier should have them if you don't.

In the South Yorks area.

If you could let us know makes/models/serial no's we'll get the scum bags caught!

I'll have to look up the serial number tomorrow. The models were-
1 off Lorch S8 with the full software package
1 off Lorch S5 with pretty much the full software package
2 off Lorch 350 Micor MIG, these are pretty much brand new, one is less than two weeks old. One of these sets will have the fancy Lorch digital torch on it.

I know its a slim chance of tracking them down but they are not your every day run of the mill welding sets. All are 415V with a 4 pin plug, either the S5 or S8 was taken with its gas bottle.

If anyone hears any thing i will be very appreciative.

being 415 volt will narrow the resale to joe public down
